I promise I am sitting down to watch X-COPS right after I write this comment. For real this time.
I hate this episode. It's so stupid.
I love Scully’s “Something smells goo-ood!” apron. Present from Mulder? Like she would ever buy herself something like that.
That or it's from the Gunmen. But I like the Mulder idea better.
She knows how things like secret exhumations and autopsies can really bring a couple together.
When you say things like that it makes me want to start watching from the beginning again. It's a vicious circle (cycle? My usage guide is all the way across the room and I am lazy. If only I had X-ray vision, my life would be so much easier. Or maybe telekinesis)! But anyway, I think I am going to go back and watch the good ones after I finish season 9. ONLY the good ones from now on.
Scully loses her appetite for lunch when Leyla brings her some crime scene and autopsy photos that, frankly, don’t even look that gross. And even if they were really gruesome, this is the woman who once ordered dinner based on the

I promise I am sitting down to watch X-COPS right after I write this comment. For real this time. Yay! I found that as I neared the end of season seven, I got slower and slower, like my subconscious knew we were getting close to S8. It was my brain's self-preservation instinct kicking in.
But anyway, I think I am going to go back and watch the good ones after I finish season 9. ONLY the good ones from now on. I've already made a list of the good episodes I'm watching when I finish. NERD.
2. yep, the magic happened on that desk, and up against that filing cabinet, and over on that counter..... YAY! I knew you would like that part!
And yes, some photos with William would have been MUCH BETTER. Or photos with Scully. Or photos with a rock. Anything. Ha! The weird thing is, I can totally imagine a scenario where Mulder would want to pose for a picture with some strange rock.
Uh, isn't that the role Scully would have played? Remember her? She used to be smart and logical? And what's annoying, too, is that even Mulder could've imagined

I think it's a combination of that, the fact that I knew X-COPS was going to be comment-heavy (I'm 10 minutes in and I've been working on it for half an hour), the fact that the episodes after it are uninspiring, and of course my continued procrastination of the other work I was supposed to be doing (it's done now!).

I am dying to watch "Quagmire" for some reason. And others, of course, but that's at the top of the list.

I'm especially glad you included the desk! And the counter. I'm a little worried the filing cabinet could result in injury.
And what's annoying, too, is that even Mulder could've imagined that it was possible to think their way out of the injuries. It's not like being imaginative means you can't think critically. He's

Mulder's aquarium and ID badge. I'm not going to lie, I paused it and gazed at his picture for a minute. As usual, I do not blame you. Anything, ANYTHING at this point will do. Even fish.
Scully loses her appetite for lunch when Leyla brings her some crime scene and autopsy photos that, frankly, don’t even look that gross. And even if they were really gruesome, this is the woman who once ordered dinner based on the contents of a man’s stomach. She should be chomping away on her sandwich. Ugh, thank you. What's crazy is that I'm someone who can view/observe a full autopsy and be thinking about lunch too, and I'm not even the PATHOLOGIST performing the damn thing. I can do the same while looking at gruesome crime scene photos, actually. If you're in that field, it's... just not an issue (especially after how many years?). *throws up hands*
Doggett’s final theory, that the bad things happen only because people believe them to be happening, is very “How the Ghosts Stole Christmas.” He "escapes" from the black hole and the monsters in

I do like you, Doggett, but it's just an established fact that Mulder is far more awesome than you. Not only do you really need to get used to it by now, but when Leyla is in your car, you should be expecting it. Yeah, Doggett really doesn't bother me when there aren't any reminders of the real XF around. When he's just investigating with Reyes, I'm like, okay. You're not too bad. But when Scully's around, or they're talking about how Johnny Fabulous Mulder is, it just reminds me of what Doggett isn't. Although I do like the idea that the character of Doggett is worn down by being compared to Mulder, so it was a nice moment from Robert Patrick and Annabeth Gish
